Hey there. I'm Braden.
​
I graduated from Timpanogos High School in 2010, where I was named Utah's all-state midfield lacrosse MVP after our team took the state championship. I'm an exercise and fitness enthusiast and trail marathon runner.
​
I earned a 4-year degree in communications at Brigham Young University in 2016, where I also wrote for the school paper.
​
I gained my first professional experience disrupting higher-ed career services at a Boston-based startup called uConnect. After graduation I remained in tech but gravitated into sales at InsideSales.com.
​
I then spent three years as a small business payments consultant at Visa. In February 2022, I took leadership of the sales development strategy for Cybersource, a Visa Solution, and led SDRs in North America and Europe to generate pipeline for Visa's small business, partner and enterprise sellers.
​
I departed Visa in early 2023 to lead sales development at Artifact, a pre-seed startup committed to revolutionizing customer feedback insights for product organizations.
​
I'm now leading the partnership development team at SchoolAI - an AI-powered educational platform serving over one million classrooms across 80+ countries, focusing on student outcomes through personalized learning experiences and teacher productivity tools.
​
In my free time, I take pictures of the people I love. My favorite thing to do is spend time in nature with my wife and sons.​
Based in Utah. ​
